Use of 'native'

Hi

Are these sentence natural English?

  1. I must tell you that my English is not native.
  2. His French sounds almost native.
  3. His English is far from native.

Thanks,

Tom

I mostly hear language teachers and language students using the term 'native'. Otherwise, I hear eg His English is not good. eg She speaks good French eg He is fluent in French.
